Chapter 293 Stopping the Cup VS Slitting the Neck
Chapter 293 Stopping the Cup VS Slitting the Neck
Gu Qianbei shook his head slightly, then immediately picked up Li Lianhua and placed her on the bed in the Lotus Pavilion.
"The truth has been told to this guy; let him investigate the rest of the truth on his own."
The poison from the green tea has been neutralized; nothing else matters to him now.
Gu Qianbei did not intend to accompany Li Lianhua all the way, because it was Fang Duobing and Di Feisheng who should accompany him on this journey.
He only wants to appear at the beginning and the end.
This is just the beginning. When Li Lianhua and Shan Gudao meet at the end, he will come out again to reap the benefits of Li Lianhua's martial arts spirit.
His most pressing task now is to find the Forget-Me-Not Flower.
If you go too late, someone might take it.
That would be troublesome.
Gu Qianbei walked out of the Lotus Pavilion and saw that the fox spirit was still eating bones. He knew that the dog was already used to Li Lianhua fainting at the drop of a hat, so it didn't care at all.
"Its fur is really shiny, it's been well taken care of."
Gu Qianbei's eyes lit up, and he immediately started petting the dog.
The fox spirit didn't refuse; she just kept gnawing on the bone.
Time slipped by slowly as I petted the dog.
As night fell, Gu Qianbei borrowed Li Lianhua's cooking utensils and cooked a meal.
As for the ingredients, they were naturally taken from Cangguanghu's storage space.
When he traveled the world, he kept quite a few things in his Cangguang gourd.
If he were ever trapped in a secluded place, he could survive for a year or two by relying on the various things inside.
Soon, the aroma wafted out from the kitchen.
The fox spirit wagged her tail frantically, drool practically dripping from her mouth.
Having grown accustomed to Li Lianhua's disastrous cooking, the fox spirit was so overwhelmed by the aroma of the food that she practically shook her tail off, begging Gu Qianbei to give her a bite.
"Here you go, you little glutton."
Gu Qianbei picked up a piece of meat and threw it to the fox spirit. The fox spirit immediately jumped up and bit the meat!
Fragrant!
The fox spirit revealed an expression of utter enjoyment.
This is the kind of life a dog should live.
"It seems the vixen has been won over by your stewed meat."
Li Lianhua walked out of the Lotus Pavilion with a slight smile on her lips.
"You're awake? You certainly know how to pick your time. Dinner's ready, come and eat with us."
Gu Qianbei laughed.
Li Lianhua did not refuse and slowly walked to the table.
Compared to the meal he cooked at noon, this table was clearly much more lavish.
The poison from the green tea in Li Lianhua's body had almost completely dissipated, so her sense of taste and smell had returned.
The aroma was so enticing that I immediately started eating without any hesitation.
"tasty!"
Li Lianhua sighed and ate half a bowl of rice in two bites.
"Isn't this much better than your cooking? The dishes you made before were such a waste of ingredients."
Gu Qianbei smiled and shook his head.
Li Lianhua looked slightly embarrassed and gave an awkward smile.
"Because of the poison from the green tea, I lost my sense of taste, which is why I made such strange-tasting dishes."
But my cooking skills are absolutely fine.
"My poison has been mostly neutralized now; all that's left is to adjust the flavor."
Gu Qianbei nodded without refuting.
Li Lianhua's cooking skills are indeed quite good.
Before long, the two people and their dog had finished off the entire table of food.
"What are your plans for the future?"
Gu Qianbei asked in a low voice.
Li Lianhua remained silent for a moment after hearing this, but finally said, "The truth you mentioned is too heavy for me."
Although I know it's probably true, I still can't accept it right now.
Therefore, I plan to continue the investigation following the clues from back then.
With the truth you provided, many things I didn't understand before are now clear.
I should be able to find out the truth soon.
"Then I wish you good luck. By the way, there's something I need to tell you first, so you don't suffer any losses due to ignorance."
Di Feisheng has a subordinate named Jiao Liqiao, who is madly in love with Di Feisheng and will stop at nothing to win his love.
She was even capable of imprisoning the Flying Flute.
The poison you received from Bi Cha back then was administered by her, who bewitched Yun Biqiu; it wasn't Di Feisheng's doing.
Di Feisheng is an upright and honest man. If he knew about this, he would definitely punish Jiao Liqiao severely.
In short, you must be careful of this person; she is very insidious.
As for the other matters, you are capable enough to investigate them thoroughly, so I'm too lazy to say more.
In short, you should be extra careful.
If you need my help, you can ask me for it.
"Thank you, Brother Gu."
"We've only met by chance, yet you've done so much for me; I'm truly touched."
Li Lianhua's words are not untrue.
Over the past decade, he has experienced too much of the coldness and warmth of human relationships. Many of his brothers who had gone through thick and thin with him back then were not willing to look for him after they learned that he had disappeared in Donghai.
It was precisely because of this that he became disheartened and decided to live in anonymity, assuming that Li Xiangyi was already dead.
"I just can't stand seeing good people being bullied."
Gu Qianbei smiled, then took out a jar of fine wine and handed it to Li Lianhua.
"Now that the poison from the green tea in your body has been almost completely neutralized, it's time to celebrate."
Come on, let's drink until we drop tonight!
Tomorrow you will embark on your journey to find the truth, while I will continue to do what I want to do.
"Alright, let's drink until we drop!"
Li Lianhua smiled slightly, took the wine jar, and drank several mouthfuls.
"Exhilarating! I've heard that Li Xiangyi's Xiangyi Tai Sword was virtually unmatched back in the day, and his Posuo Step was unbreakable. I wonder if I'll have the chance to experience it for myself today?"
Gu Qianbei asked with a smile.
"Of course. Brother Gu looks like a highly skilled martial artist, and I am very interested in testing your skills."
Li Lianhua said with a smile, and then the soft sword for slaying one's neck flew out from his sleeve and was grasped in his hand.
"The young master defeated ten thousand troops, his neck turned to soft bones! To witness Li Xiangyi's neck-slitting sword today is truly a worthwhile trip."
Gu Qianbei smiled faintly, then stopped the cup and flew out, flashing with golden light, he had already grasped the blade of the Stop Cup Sword.
"What a fine sword!"
Li Lianhua's eyes lit up when she saw the Stop-Cup Sword in Gu Qianbei's hand.
He had never seen such a magical sword before.
"I wonder how much of Li Xiangyi's power Li Lianhua can now unleash?"
"The poison hasn't been completely neutralized, but I can still use ninety percent of my power."
Li Lianhua smiled, moved her feet, and approached like a blur.
Swaying steps!
Li Xiangyi's self-created light-body technique is unparalleled in the martial arts world.
Seeing this, Gu Qianbei was not afraid at all. He stepped out with the Phoenix Dance Six Illusions, which was even faster than the Swaying Step.
The six afterimages separated, causing Li Lianhua to show a look of surprise.
"What incredible lightness skill! To be able to create so many afterimages!"
Despite her surprise, Li Lianhua was not slow at all.
Two incredibly fast swordsmen engaged in a sword duel in the forest, a duel so intense that it was impossible for ordinary people to see it.
The Sword That Stops Drinking vs. the Sword That Slits the Neck!
